Angles Formed By Transversals
Kate D., Alexis B., Kelsey R., Madison B.
Transversal:A line that intersects 2 or more coplanar lines at different points.
Questions:
1. If line AB and line CD are parallel then which line is the transversal?
2. Name a pair of alternate exterior angles.
3. Name a pair of alternate interior angles.
4. Name a pair of consecutive interior angles.
5. Name a pair of corresponding angles.
Answers:
1. Line GF is the transversal.
2. An alternate exterior angle is when they lie outside the two lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. Angle 8 and Angle 1 are alternate exterior angles.
3. An Alternate interior angles are when the alternate interior angles lie between the two lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. Angles 7 and 6, Angles 5 and 8, Angles 1 and 4, Angles 2 and 3.
4. A Consecutive interior angle is when the angles lie between the 2 lines and on the same side of the transversal. Angles 5 and 3, and Angles 6 and 4.
5. Corresponding Angles are when the angles have corresponding positions. Angles 6 and 2, Angles 4 and 8, Angles 5 and 1, Angles 3 and 7.
